, but considering that I'm concerned that I don't have $50 to offer a contractor for an estimate, you can bet I'm not excited about taking up a lawyer's time so that he can give me a standard form and a bill for it.

Is there water availabe?

well first off let me clarify..my wholesaling is a myth" line was a bit tongue in cheek..Eric, you misunderstood me, what I meant was is that i know people who are wholesaling BUT it's maybe a deal here.. a deal there..which i wouldn't even mind..i also said of the wholesalers i know, 1 to my knowledge has done $15k,(at least that's what he told me) many of them aren't. i go to the REIA meetings and they have wholesalers practically begging for buyers and it's no go..and these deals aren't bad deals..they have equity and are at a reasonable purchase price..what many of you on this board don't understand is the way people are here..especially buyers..many are flaky, the few who aren't are too busy..i can read books on wholesaling all day but if the buyers aren't interested..forget it..plus from what i'm being told wholesaling is pretty much dead in the water w/ this market and yes i have access to the mls and realtor.com but a these props are agent owned and my buyers won't touch a Realtor owned property......try again fellas

Do you have a standard cleaning charge in your lease?

Further, due to the lax lending standards in place, a lot of people got into homes they couldn't afford in the first place.

I think it was NY Times that rated their 90 Minute Imperial I.P.A. as the best in the nation, by their standards.

Im in Vancouver BC, the land value (no house) starts from $550,000 - $1mil right now for 1 standard size lot.

I'm an overseas investor that would want to invest some of my own cash, buying houses in bad to very bad condition, renovating them to good to very good standard and then renting.But would like my dollar to go a little further and be able to get some lender willing to refinance those refurbished properties in order to release equity to purchase some more properties.Hope to hear from you soonThanks

Test the waters before committing to a full membership or you may find yourself kicking your own behind for doing so.With all of that said, other than coming here to BP, there aren't too many better ways of meeting and networking with other investors than a local club.

As a licensed real estate agent, you are held to a higher standard in any real estate transaction.Most states' real estate laws are very similar but I know in Texas that you always have to disclose that you are a licensed agent.
